Pros

1400-acre property offers extensive outdoor recreation including private hiking trails and lake activities

Historic chapels and meeting spaces ideal for religious retreats and conferences

Seasonal farm-to-table dining using ingredients from on-site organic garden

ACA-accredited summer camp programs and outdoor education facilities

Cons

Fleming's Lakeside restaurant operates seasonally only

18.5 miles distance from nearest major airport requires vehicle transportation

“Set amidst trees with a lake view, this inn seems designed for outdoor enjoyment and quiet reflection; spacious rooms, some offering balconies, enhance the experience. Breakfast is included, though in-room amenities are intentionally spare, promoting disconnection. It is a unique choice for those seeking a peaceful mountain getaway near Hendersonville.”
